I actually forgot my ID one time in my checked bag. When I got to security I explained to the TSA agent my foible. He looked down and saw that I was still wearing my Microsoft security badge from work, which has my photo on it. He grabbed it and said this will work. He stated that he used to work for corporate security at MS and knew that these are harder to get than a Drivers Licence. He looked at my ticket and passed me through.

This hasn't happened to me, but last year I had to cut a trip short as the rental agent pointed out that my license was expiring that week. Fortunately, I was able to make adjustments to my schedule in order to get back to ATL and renew my license in time to head out for the next trip.
